Hi Steve,
I’m giving design spark a try as well as other pakages.

If you look in C:\Program Files\DesignSpark\DesignSpark PCB\Doc
You will see on page 38 of DesignSparkTutorial.pdf:
‘If you require a custom board size and shape, and decide not you use our pre-defined shapes of
rectangle or circle, this can also be easily achieved.’
It than goes on to explain how to change the board size.
